Analysis of Material Processing Center Operations

This project investigates the strategic, tactical, and operational effectiveness of Material Processing Centers (MPC) within the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). Led by Principal Investigator Manuel D. Rossetti, Ph.D., P.E., and Co-Principal Investigator Terry R. Collins, Ph.D., P.E., it aims to enhance supply support efficiency for military customers during peacetime and war. The research involves on-site observations in Susquehanna, PA, and Norfolk, VA, examining current operating policies and recommending process improvements based on measurable performance criteria.
